Resolved Microsoft Updates Fail

This is the error code that I receive when I try to do an Microsoft Update: Error Code: 0x80246008. I am using the free version 2012 AVG. Thanks

 

Check that the time and date on your computer is set correctly

 

Hi Evan and thanks for the advice. Here is what I did that got the updates working again:
Verify that BITS is configured correctly and then start the BITS service
For Microsoft Windows 2000, for Windows XP, or for Windows Server 2003, follow these steps:
1.Click Start, click Run, type services.msc, and then click OK.
2.Double-click Background Intelligent Transfer Service.
3.In the Startup type box, click Manual, and then click Apply.
4.On the Log On tab, verify that the service is enabled in every hardware profile that is listed.

Note If the service is disabled in one or more hardware profiles, click the hardware profile, click Enable, and then click Apply.
5.On the General tab, click Start.
